That's the running theory actually.clearspira wrote: ↑Sat Jan 07, 2023 5:55 pmFour pages a day is VERY hopeful when it comes to this sloth of a man. Look, I don't want to be needlessly mean, he is old and unfit so maybe he literally can't sit in front of a word processor for very long and if so that is sad. But Jesus, he's been writing this series since 1991. For reference, JK Rowling started Harry Potter in 1997 and she managed to churn out seven books by 2007 - the last four being the size of house bricks.McAvoy wrote: ↑Sat Jan 07, 2023 4:43 amNo release date. Last thing I heard is that the book is going to be huge. Bigger than the previous books. I think he said there is about 750 pages left to be written.clearspira wrote: ↑Tue Jan 03, 2023 2:08 pmHas it actually been confirmed with a release date or does it still have a ''nearly done, not long now, when its ready, putting the finishing touches to'' status? If its the latter then I am afraid you will be sorely disappointed.McAvoy wrote: ↑Mon Jan 02, 2023 4:53 am Song of Ice and Fire. I can only hope that it's gets released presumably for Christmas this year.
This is the sort of book where I shut down everything, stock up on cheese and other finger edibles and read the book from front to cover with little to no care of sleeping. Then reread it again but slowly the second time.
After all of this time I don't know why he doesn't just bundle a stack of notes to a ghostwriter and be done with it. Instant money - what does he have to lose?
Which is like four pages a day if he turns it in by June for editing, revisions and printing.
The more I think about it, probably won't be released in 2023.
He strikes me as a man who absolutely does not want to write this book and is just trying to keep up pretences so he doesn't have to deal with a load of crap from fanboys (I am not including you in that).
I think Game of Thrones played z part too. He was involved alot with thd show even writing an episode for each season.
